“Hi :)

Has anyone any ideas why I have a really long delay on accessing websites on my pi zero w when connected to my home router? I have gone over the steps 4 times and I'm sure I've got everything right! (I'm fairly new to linux OS)

When I try access a site via a web browser I get 'The web page at https://google.co.uk/ might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address' ERR_NAME_RESOLUTION_FAILED

This lasts for around 2-4 minutes and then the page will reload (or I will reload the browser) and google will show.

When I ping https://www.google.co.uk I get 'Temporary failure in name resolution', however when I ping 8.8.4.4 this seems to be fine. Once I've waited for the browser to finally show the webpage I can then ping google by domain name and it works.

I've tried some pretty extensive googling to resolve this but with no luck. I'd love to understand what's gone wrong.
